Chapter 585: Chapter 585: Come quickly, let’s cultivate together_1
"Is it settled?"
"It’s settled!"
Leah Frost nodded, "On the tenth of next month, each side will invite helpers for the competition, a best-of-five match. The winner will be the next successor of the Frost Family, and there will be no more changes."
Carson Flores smiled, "Invite helpers, does that mean finding five Innate Great Grandmasters?"
Leah Frost snorted coldly, "With the Hoffman Family’s help, finding five helpers is too easy. Even if they are five Innate Great Grandmasters, the Hoffman Family could easily produce them."
Carson Flores said with a smile, "So simple and crude. Isn’t it necessary to assess the successor’s personal abilities?"
Leah Frost said discontentedly, "Messiah Frost and Adriel Frost are closely matched in strength and capabilities, which is the widely accepted result after years of nurturing within the family. By setting this method, the ancestors have already indirectly indicated their support for Messiah Frost. They even hope that Adriel Frost would concede on his own to avoid causing discord. Hmph, biased. Why don’t they ask Messiah Frost to give up?"
Carson Flores nodded, "No wonder after Hank Hoffman was certain that I would support my cousin, he withdrew, saying we’d settle accounts later. It turns out they knew about this method of competition all along. As long as I stand with my cousin, they have a legitimate reason to send masters to take me down during the competition."
Leah Frost curiously asked, "Hank Hoffman?"
Carson Flores recounted the chance encounter with Desmond Hoffman and Messiah Frost at the restaurant, and how he had slapped Desmond Hoffman twice.
Leah Frost’s eyes widened, "You slapped Desmond Hoffman directly, and Hank Hoffman didn’t react?"
Carson Flores said with a mischievous grin, "His reaction was useless. First, Desmond Hoffman was in the wrong, and second, Hank Hoffman can’t beat us. Unless he calls in a bunch of the Hoffman Family’s Innate Great Grandmasters. But making such a big scene would look bad."
Shirley Miller chimed in with a smile, "The larger the family, the more internal strife there tends to be. Although the Hoffman Family has many Innate Great Grandmasters and great strength, it has even more family members and branches. They’re probably not that united. Desmond Hoffman isn’t some genius; not everyone would be willing to clean up after a dissolute disciple."
"Moreover, since Desmond Hoffman is Hank Hoffman’s grandson, any action Hank Hoffman takes because of Desmond’s mistake would be suspect to personal bias. And we’re not easy targets. If it really turned into a fight and they pushed us too hard, they might not be the ones who end up losing. So it’s safer for them to use the excuse of supporting Adriel Frost to publicly target us in the arena."
Leah Frost’s eyes showed concern, "Then they will definitely send very powerful masters to target you. If you really participate, it might be dangerous. Maybe we shouldn’t...?"
"What do you mean shouldn’t?"
Carson Flores laughed heartily, "My cousin has only this one chance. If we miss it, it’s gone forever. As for fighting, we’ve never been afraid of anyone."
Without waiting for Leah Frost to speak again, Carson Flores said, "The three of us, plus Abel Compton, Rocky Stein, five altogether fighting them. If we win, all is well; if we lose, at least we’ll have tried our best without regrets."
Leah Frost asked curiously, "Is Rocky Stein suitable to show up? Why not Ethan Roth?"
Carson Flores explained, "We’re not plotting an assassination, just a normal martial competition. There’s nothing to avoid. Even if some guess that Rocky Stein is one of the people who helped me before, so what? Those who were enemies before have been wiped out and are no longer a threat. Rocky Stein is one of the Divine Cloudy Sect’s three Innates. Her participation can indirectly show the Sect’s stance, and also lend some weight to Adriel Frost..."
Leah Frost said with admiration, "You’ve really thought things through."
Carson Flores smiled, "If we’re going to do this, we should do our best. You, the hidden Innate master, won’t be able to stay hidden this time. You must reveal your identity to give my cousin a bit of confidence and support."
Leah Frost nodded, "Of course."
Carson Flores slapped his hands decisively, "Then it’s decided. You handle the other affairs; I won’t intervene. We’ll just be responsible for showing up and fighting when it’s time!"
"Alright!"
As they were speaking, Carson Flores’s phone began to ring.
Lilly Compton.
Carson Flores was slightly surprised but answered the call promptly.
"Carson..."
Carson Flores smiled, "Yes, what is it?"
Lilly Compton said excitedly, "Carson, I’ve found a place rich in Spiritual Energy. The intensity of the Spiritual Energy is no less than that of the Jade Pool!"
Carson Flores’s eyes suddenly lit up; Lilly Compton had told him her goal was to traverse famous mountains and waters to find places rich in Spiritual Energy. It had not been long, and she had already found one?
"Where are you now?"
Lilly Compton replied, "Nine Dragons Fort, Colorful Pond."
Carson Flores said in surprise, "Isn’t that a tourist attraction?"
Lilly Compton said proudly, "Yes, but you taught me how to look for places with Spiritual Energy. This place has many incredible legends, so I came to check it out, and I discovered a real site rich in Spiritual Energy! Hurry over, let’s cultivate together!"
